I am extremely interested in doing testing for Debian on the M1 platform. I only have newer Macs so I ordered a refurbished M1 from Amazon to use for testing. I would like to contribute to the Debian community. I am not a full stack programmer but I have experience QA testing games and I also have work experience using JIRA to make and track bugs. I realize we do not track bugs with this software but I think that these skills are useful for this project. This is my second time trying to volunteer at Debian, the first time I was not given any work for the project. Any guidance you can provide would be greatly appreciated.
Sincerely, Michael Lazin .. τὸ γὰρ αὐτὸ νοεῖν ἐστίν τε καὶ εἶναι.
